Crossing, 30th April

Tue, 30 Apr 2024 09:39:21 +0100
51.879618 0.92052

Every morning there is a guy who leaves his big suv just on the crossing to walk his kid to school. He leaves his car with engine too what I guess is illegal to. I am a disabled person and my son rides a bike. A car parked just on crossing makes my life harder and I find it impossible to walk further. There are more people like this just on school run times, in the morning and in the evening too. Every parent can park in the parking located on Rec and it is just a few meters of walking then. Too far for some. Unfortunately I have no pictures.

Dangerously deep pothole on northbound road, 8th March

Fri, 08 Mar 2024 09:29:28 +0000
51.904756 0.8983

This pot hole has been on the road for a good two months now, possibly longer as I didn’t make a note when I first saw it. The volume of traffic due to the roadworks makes it worse. Cars have to veer around it which is dangerous (near oncoming vehicles) and the depth of it will cause damage if a car goes through it. Due to the location of it, it’s not possible to get a photo as evidence as you cannot stop anywhere. It’s northbound after the traffic lights where the right hand land goes up Turner Rise and just as the road bends a little to the left. It’s on the right hand ride of the lane. The stretch of this road from the Asda roundabout up to the Mill Roadcrossroads is becoming filled with more potholes so if you can bring more supplies to fix them, could you travel the length and fix them all please? Thank you from all of us with vehicles.

North Hill is covered in potholes, old patched roadworks which are crumbling and is a very rough ride to use. Going up there on a bus feels like you’re going off road. Please look into this and consider having the road resurfaced.
